Fluffy Sourdough Pancakes Food

SOURDOUGH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Combine the sourdough starter with the milk and flour in a large bowl that is big enough to allow the mixture to rise.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and leave it on the counter overnight; the batter needs to rise and continue to develop its sourdough flavor. This will be your overnight sponge and the base for the pancakes.
• In the morning, add the beaten eggs, sugar, baking powder, and salt to the sourdough starter mixture. Whisk until combined and smooth.
• Whisk in the cooled melted butter and the vanilla extract. The batter will be very thick and almost like a slack bread dough after you are done mixing.
• Heat up a cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and add a little bit of neutral oil or butter. Turn the heat down to medium-low and ladle 1/4 cup batter to the skillet. Cook for a few minutes until bubbles start forming on top and the pancakes are browned on the underside.
• Flip the pancakes over and cook for another minute on the other side. It doesn't take as long on the second side, so watch carefully. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Serve the pancakes with fresh berries, maple syrup, powdered sugar, and/or melted butter.

SOURDOUGH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Night Before -- combine all the Basic Batter ingredients (starter, flour, sugar and water in a large glass or plastic container -- be sure the container is large enough that batter does not overflow as it produces caron dioxide and expands.
• Allow to sit at room temperature, loosely covered for 6 to 12 hours. (Note: If not using the basic batter right away after proofing, or have some left over, store in a glass or plastic container, cover tightly and refrigerate.).
• Next Morning -- in medium bowl, beat egg, milk and butter/oil.
• Stir in 1 Cup of Basic Batter.(store the balance in the refrigerator for future use). (See Recipe #327240 for additional uses).
• In a separate bowl, sift or stir flour, sugar, salt and baking soda together; stir into the egg mixture.
• Ladle batter on to preheated lightly greased griddle or skillet.
• Quickly rotate the pan to spread the batter evenly over the bottom of the pan.
• Cook pancakes until golden brown on both sides.

SOURDOUGH PANCAKES

Steps:

• The night before, stir your sourdough starter and remove one cup.
• Place the 1 cup of starter in a glass or stoneware bowl at least 6 cups in size (don't use plastic or metal bowls for this- they give off flavors to the batter).
• Stir in the 2 cups of tepid water, the flour, and the sugar until smooth.
• Cover lightly (you can use plastic wrap but don't seal off the air going into the bowl) and place in a non-drafty place and allow to sit overnight.
• The next morning, remove one cup of the batter and pour it back into the mother starter (what you removed this from in the first place; you should keep this refrigerated).
• Start to heat your griddle (heat to 370F), oiling it lightly if needed.
• Stir the egg, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and melted butter into the batter.
• Drop by 1/4-cupfuls onto the hot griddle and flip them with a spatula when they bubble and get golden on the underside.
• Keep pancakes warm while finishing the others.
• Serve pancakes hot with butter and syrup, if desired.
• You can also easily make blueberry pancakes with this; just dust them with a little flour before folding into the pancake batter.
